While the Hamptons hospitality staples remain the premier destinations to stay out East, like Gurney’s Montauk Resort & Seawater Spa, EHP, The Maidstone, and more, all eyes are on The Hedges Inn this summer. Located between Main Beach and Main Street, The Hedges Inn enters a new era this season under Andrew and Sarah Wetenhall, owners of The Colony Hotel Palm Beach, blending tradition with modernity to offer exceptional guest experiences, personalized service, and a welcoming atmosphere while debuting Swifty’s at The Hedges—the beloved New York City boîte’s first Hamptons outpost.
Over in Montauk, luxury beachfront property, Marram Montauk, celebrates its milestone 5th season with exciting new programming, including a guest-only art gallery by acclaimed artist Sean Spellman, a marine program with Swarovski Optik, complimentary access to a Lucid Motors luxury electric vehicle for suite guests, and more.
Returning this summer—and a haute favorite—is the collaboration between the Baccarat Hotel New York and The Roundtree, Amagansett. Embark on a luxurious summer escape with the NYC + The Hamptons: City to Beach package, offered by Baccarat Hotel New York and The Roundtree, Amagansett, featuring two nights at each property with exclusive amenities like spa treatments, gourmet dining, and optional Flexjet Sikorsky S-76 helicopter transfers.
